    So sad to to hear this news.  I never knowingly met Ben but my thoughts go out to all those that knew 'our Ben' personally. Life can be tough at times and for Ben's family and friends now is that time. Always in our hearts, always an Addick. Rip Ben

    Ben,  what extraordinary courage you showed young man - always smiling through in every photo I saw posted - you are a true inspiration and a very, very special Charlton fan - may you now rest in peace.

    Also cried at the minutes applause. Never knew Ben only because Fanny brought his story to our attention through the christmas card ask. I started when I saw Tracey comforting the family.  Nothing can make their pain better but the kindness of our club is remarkable.

    I'd not been on here for a while and was unaware of his passing, until it was announced at yesterday's game. I don't mind admitting to feeling emotional during the applause.

    Does Ben’s family live in Plumstead? I walked past this on a local house today. I assume it is for Ben? Anyway I thought it was lovely.

    If anyone think it’s inappropriate to post this I’ll remove it. 



    Yes, they do, Curb_It.

    Hadn't heard about this but it's beautiful ! Thanks for sharing.
